Big
Profits in the Commodities Market
February
14, 2008
The stock market has everyone in a
frenzy...which stock to buy, when to sell, who are new big players,
how much do I need to invest? Some of these questions are often
answered after the opportunity is gone. Investors can face
investment dilemmas trying to choose a stock after hearing some news
breaking event, causing a delay entry in the market. For some of us
it’s a matter of investing later rather than sooner. Learning to
invest as an adult can deeply effect our ability to succeed as an
investor in the future. Lack of knowledge, debt, and material
items play a key role in preventing African Americans from
aggressive investing. Unfortunately many African Americans aren’t
exposed to the potential wealth from investing until we have already
reached adulthood. By that time, we have already accumulated debt
which minimizes the amount of our risk capital or our minds are so
conditioned to investing in things that don’t give back. As I
encountered college students interning working at investment firms,
I find most of them already have brokers and familiarizing
themselves with investing before reaching the age of adulthood. We
need to better equip our children earlier as well so they can become
seasoned investors sooner.
If these set backs are causing a lag in your
portfolio, investing in the commodities market can be the big boost
you need! This is by no means an attempt to bash stocks, but to let
you know there are other exciting investment products available.
The commodity market can have lucrative rewards while minimizing
your risks. I invested $250 on my first trade and yielded nearly
$1000 within three weeks. You also learn about the world as you’re
investing. While following the commodity market, you learn about
agriculture, importing/exporting, weather, natural resources, and
more. An advantage the commodity market offers is the elimination
of guess work of what to invest. Unlike the stock market you have
the opportunity to invest in the product itself. If there is a
hurricane threatening orange groves, invest directly in oranges
instead of missing an opportunity because you need to research which
company will be affected. Commodities and futures also have a
unique profit taking convention. Each contract is assigned unit
values in which a penny or a dollar move is worth. For instance,
each penny move in coffee is worth $375.
This phenomenal investment vehicle has
encouraged me to write a book with an inside view of the commodity
market, technical trading, and some rewarding trading strategies.
There is a list of commonly traded commodities along with there unit
values. This handbook will also teach you how to look up prices in
a financial newspaper, recognizing buy and sell signals and more.
There are even fun exercises with an answer key to reinforce
learning. I also offer a month of support for any topic that you
don’t understand. Visit
